I watch with love for LA but I am hopeful that having to face and deal with do much terrible personal loss....people will start having truer empathy for their nieghbours. Seeing those horrific images from the burned out areas for themselves, when they see Ukraine or Gaza we will all empathize more.
I helps when certain cable news networks and social media spend all their time screaming into an echo chamber that reinforces the idea of “pay no attention to the man behind the curtain”
maga....a cult? You mean the large number of ignorant people, many having only a middle school education, listening to fox as they absorb their daily untruths, and following "leaders" who spew fictional lies to feed their hate? That maga???
This will get worse as the dumbing down of Ed. Standards in Texastan, Oklahomastan, Floridastan & other red states where Science, History and other subjects will diluted & downgraded..
Shudder to think where the US will be 20 years from now.
Trump loves the poorly educated.. it's part of his plan.
Mayra, you are totally accurate. You know I'm always saying how they used known/proven psychological & marketing strategies to train & reinforce their message...& then their media reinforced that conditioned learning endlessly.
They purposely set out to create a movement like Hitler did & succeeded
bet the turn on their corrupt greedy 🍊 flavoraid cult leader & cronies when grocery prices go up from mass deportations & tariffs & ACA & Medicare & Social Security are defunded & cut & housing prices erupt more & bird 🐦 flu plagues spread & …
It’s the gob-smacking level of stupidity and gullibility within the MAGA cult that is most frustrating. We’ll still be fighting that long after I’ve pissed on Trump’s grave.
Yep, a militant pseudo-theocratic cult who’ve all been drinking the KoolAid for nine years already. #Trumpaliban The malignant parasitic orange demon will weaponize them with immunity as soon as he can. After pardoning his #January6th fellow felons mob. Like the Brownshirts in Germany.
MAGA is permission to hate...
MAGA is permission to abuse your position for your own benifit
MAGA is putting women in their place
MAGA is making you less than me
MAGA is $$$$
MAGA sucks...
The funny thing is that the MAGA are the sheep. A term they throw at people who actually think for themselves. And the billionaires laugh and laugh as the rest of us fight each other. Divide and conquer.
The left also used to be the snowflakes supposedly. And the ones who needed safe spaces. Now all they do is cry over everything they don’t like and think trans women are putting their daughters at risk.
I do too. I really thought their self proclaimed threat to democracy might finally get them to understand that no matter how many years we play nicely, the opposing side is willing to get dirty. They don’t care for the Dems bipartisan approach.
I'd just make one correction...
MAGA isn't so much "putting women in their place" as it is telling women they have a place (usually the kitchen) so they should go get in it. I can't speak for all GenX women but I, for one, don't jive with that sort of nonsense.
But overall, you nailed it.
What about Rogan?? He seems like a super smart guy. I’m sure he has his own lab and published peer reviewed research and everything. I bet he even has a super cool lab coat.
I’m from GB 🇬🇧 and we had “Brexit” which has a very similar toxicity level compared to MAGA. I have said for the longtime Brexit is a cult! People have lost their minds over it and reason! It’s bizarre
They don't vote for Trump because they think he is honest, they vote for him because he is a low life, cheating, stealing, third rate thug.
Trump is the excuse to lie, cheat and steal.
"Everybody does it"
He validates & gives voice to their racism & hatreds.
It’s like LBJ said, “If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.”
It is! No doubt about it! But the real problem is education or the lack of it! Dictators don’t want educated curious people! Just replaceable parts for increasing their wealth!
It’s Americas fault for letting its people uneducated and waiting 2 Years for a Presidential campaign to begin!
There are so many aspects involved in what makes religion so harmful, toxic & dangerous to society. This is one that few are aware of. Religion is so many bad things; from a legal scam, to psychological warfare & a political tool.
They've earned our disdain.
Baskets overflowing with sanctimonious hatemongers & ammosexual incel infidels; a Confederacy of Dunces & of Lost Causes whose redhats are the new brownshirts of the magadethKKKult; an American crISIS, rampant with gun disease, moral rot & truth decay.
A Confederacy of Dunces, incisive story and way too aware for the audience in question. Neon Bible was even more impressive for his age when produced - it’s the next chapter of revision the low brow evangelist salesman will use on his herd.
NAILED IT!☝🏾
It’s years of unaddressed mental issues similar to paranoid schizophrenic, sociopathic narcissism and most likely severe childhood trauma..
When a incredible black man became President and the first words from Mitch McConnell were” I will make sure he is a one term president “ that gave permission, Trump, like all rats, saw the opening.
MAGA is kind of more dangerous than just a cult. It is a theocratic cult. It combines the dogma of a cult with the power of the state. This does not end well.
There is a lot of complexity group thinking. The more monolithic they are the more uninformed they tend to be. Where there is a lot of different opinions it lacks cohesiveness but the general level of information remains high. So ironically the ignorant crowds is more effective in the short term.
I’ve always maintained that higher education in America is the best in the world. But for many, the high school education system is probably the worst in the world.
Which is one of the institutions that the GOP has been tearing away at for decades. Irony is big in the GOP. The NeoCons were scared of society falling apart due to progressive ideas. But they wound up undermining most of the institutions that hold society together while trying to stop progress.
not to mention the christians who have been militarized and given the sly notion that they will be able to ride Trump into power then get rid of him for their own 'glory'
Narcissists like trump can be exploited if you know about it and you are in the right position. I guarantee the world leaders he has met with were briefed by psychologists explaining how to manipulate a narcissist. Which is why he kept have great meetings with autocrats. They played him hard.
Any individual is capable of lying to you, reality star or scientist or scholar.
What's key, is the COMMUNITY those groups have built. The ability for them to cast out their own when they lie, to bolster the credibility of those left.
Unfortunately, Maga followed that technique fairly well.
Basically put the base is a bunch of 80’s 📺 babies and their kids! Yes they put TV personalities up on a pedestal with no real education or skill sets but they are catchy to the ignorant.
The funniest part and how you know they don’t understand any of how this works is.. in science and academia.. they love to prove each other wrong.. and they have zero loyalty.. so that’s why it is so reliable. Careers are made tenor granted on disproving invalidating articles, research ect.
I have devoted half a century to teaching environmental science and conservation. What a waste of my life now that propaganda is more powerful than actual skills. I give up.
The magats are working overtime right now to say how stupid those people are..and tell each other how smart they are and how they have it figured out..shocking is a word I am using too often now. 💙💙
Rapist Felon’s only genuine achievement is to be the most deceitful, best conman ever to exist. He failed as a decent human being, businessman, husband, father and President but somehow has amassed a huge cult following. Your mother would be proud, 🍊🤡. FAFO MAGA! He conned you, too.
Yes you All are needed, we need to reach as much as possible much much more millions of Blue Skye followers “before 2025, 19th Jan.”, because X has more than 200.000.000 followers because we need to have our say & we need to be heard by all.
How tragic that a developing civilization--"developing" implying progress and improvement (hopefully for the positive benefit of the participants)--could be destroyed by the backward, the unevolved, the greedy, and the fearful of change.
Is the former guy the modern incarnation of the Roman Emperor NERO?
These two narcissistic guys share many traits of
1. needing undeserved adoration;
2. suffers from paranoia;
3. spouts wild exaggeration; 4. not able to do his job; 5. doesn’t take his work seriously;
5. cruel;
can someone ask companies to donate drugs for people? Dr’s get samples. People are going to need their medicine. Drug companies hand out samples to Dr’s office.

We will need to watch it on pay per view, I would imagine. The MAGA world and the business class in a GOP death match in WWE, late 1980's lenses. That'll be cool.
I am all in except where you talk about economists. economist are not scientists, they don’t practice the scientific method, they are actually mercenary statisticians. economist don’t understand the economy even if you shoved up their asses. Most importantly they don’t understand fucking science.
Wake up people DT is destroying America as we know it! He isn’t in office yet & look what he has done. Lies everyday just about everything. He wants to buy Greenland, take back the Panama Canal, & make Canada a state.Threatening them with tariffs & bullying our allies. Some voted for this 🤬
😡🥵
Trump wants America to become a shit hole country so he can look down on everyone else and feel proud of collapsing this country so Putin can take it for himself.

As fed up with them as I am now, it’s going to be a long hard foreseeable future.
Glad we have community and resistance here. 💙🦋

MAGA sucks...
The AntiChrist isn't a person
It's a movement...
Every line
You can tell
He doesn't care
Of which I try to align myself
Are led by pussies...
And I hate that...
It's like the other side has no need for truth
Yet we try to be honest and true
As the car speeds by us
And splashes us from a big puddle
Over and over...

We make our stand here! We don’t allow them to make it shut again! We need to work smarter!
We need FL, PN, TX and we need work to make it happen!

I’m not a trumper or republican but the hypocrisy & ignorance on the left is why I’ll never return.
Dems are the “do as I say, not as I do party”
Look at WWII fighter planes, 400 mph. Why does anybody give a damn about cars?
Did John Maynard Keynes ever see a television commercial for automobiles?
😡🥵
Thank you.
